Thumbs up *** 68 Classifieds License Auction ***

BACKGROUND

This past April, the owner of a local bicycle store was paralyzed in a motorcycle wreck. He had stopped behind a dump truck, waiting for the car ahead of it to turn left. The person driving the jeep behind him failed to stop and hit him from behind.

More info >> Second serious motorcycle wreck puts Belmont businessman in hospital | cherry, hall, business - Local News - Gaston Gazette

He was airlifted to a local hospital where he spent the next 12 weeks having multiple surgeries and getting to a point where he could get back home. The hospital stay alone cost over $200,000. This doesn't include the operations, rehabilitation, medicine, etc. From what I understand, he passed $1M months ago.

The driver of the jeep was underinsured. The amount the Cherry's owe is staggering. Through all this, Bill is still his same old self. He's got an amazing attitude.
